Ten Offenses To Be Avoided
The maha-mantra we receive from Sri Gurudev is the essence of all divine sound and by the merciful power of the name itself, it is spreading throughout the world. The sadhus (devotees ) are the reservoirs of the divine name and at no time should they be offended.
The son of the king of Braja, the lord of lords, Sri Krishna is served by all the Devas, headed by Maheshvar Shiva and is always superior to them. The divine form of the name of Krishna is non-different from him, as are his qualities, pastimes, associates and divine form and should never be considered to be separate from him.
Krishna appears to us in the form of Sri Guru and this is evidenced in all the scriptures. In this form of Sri Guru, Krishna bestows his mercy on the fortunate souls. Therefore, one should never consider the sat Guru to be an ordinary person. Serving him will fulfill all of our spiritual desires.
The holy scriptures guide us on the proper path and are revealed through pure goodness. We should always be careful not to slight these revealed scriptures because with the help of the saints, every syllable guides to the divine name of Krishna.
All of the holy scriptures directly declare the glories of the divine name. One should never think these glories to be exaggerated. All of the great Rishis and Devatas like Agastya, Ananta, Brahma, Shiva and all others are always engaged in the sankirtan of the divine name.
The glories of the name are a fathomless ocean. Who can find the end of that ocean? Whomever considers these glories to be imagination is the worst miscreant. This divine name is the treasure of Goloka and one who considers it to be a mundane creation is a criminal.
All the shastras state that the holy name can destroy all sins. One should not therefore, pass his entire day engaged in sinful actions. One who does so is misguided offender and is thus plunged into unending sorrow and deprived of the fruits of the divine name.
The unparalleled name of Krishna is an ocean of the nectar of divine love. The name is the method to attain that ocean. Nothing can be considered equal to it.
One who hears these glories of the divine name but does not develop love for it is the lowest creature. Instead he sees everything through the polluted lens of "I and Mine." The pure name of Krishna is never revealed to such a person.
One should steadfastly rid oneself of these ten offenses. Such an offenseless soul ecstatically takes the divine name and tastes the incomparable fruit of Krishna-prem. The divine name is incessantly resounding in the heart of such a pure soul.
